1 ounce Gold American Eagle - Roll of 10 - 2016 - US Mint
Description
Authorized by the Bullion Coin Act of 1985, American Eagle Gold Bullion Coins quickly became one of the world's leading gold bullion investment coins.
American Eagles use the durable 22 karat standard established for gold circulating coinage over 350 years ago. Coins are guaranteed by the U.S. government to contain the stated amount of actual gold weight in troy ounces. By law, the gold must come from sources in America, alloyed with silver and copper to produce a more wear-resistant coin.
Minted to exacting standards, the obverse (front) of the Gold American Eagle was originally designed by Augustus Saint Gaudens for the 1907-1933 $20.00 U.S. Double Eagle gold coin. The reverse design, by sculptor Miley Busiek, features a male eagle carrying an olive branch flying above a nest holding a female eagle and her hatchlings, signifying the strength and security of American families.
